    Dateline NBC

    Its actually quite simple, we are in a certain stage in a cycle that has been happening since caveman just about. What good does placing blame do? Especially when a bunch of, I guess, reasonably intelligent people cannot come to a conseus. If anyone remotely knew what was actually going to...

    How little capital could you make a living off?? ;)

    You are implying that capital alone can make a living which is false. A person is stranded on an island which is uninhabited by humans and involves no link to the rest of the world. How much capital do you think this person needs to make a living? What if you add one person? Two, three...

    delta-gamma neutral

    Is this a trick question or did I screw up? If the stock climbs to 45 within a relatively short period of time and if IV doesn't change change I would have to say zero. But I guess (granted my math is right) that if the stock goes to 45 in a short period of time IV might not be the same...

    delta-gamma neutral

    Yes it is contradictory as I couldn't be gamma neutral yet long gamma at the same time... which would justify why taking the other side of this trade may be the perfect set up for a particular outlook. If everything was neutralized the only thing that is 100% is commission. lol

    Good thing I didn't take the trade, turned out to be one of these... (lol)

    Lets see how this pans out

    What a perfect head and shoulders on the 3min ES chart, neckline is very close to the pivot point too. I don't really look for patterns in my trading but I noticed this one cause it looks like a text book example.

    delta-gamma neutral

    I was just reading how this works and I still don't see where the catch is. Of course there is no strategy, un-managed, that will generate continuous profits without the relative risk. You buy 100 calls of xyz SK25. Gamma= 0.1 Long Call has a gamma of 1000 You sell 125 calls of xyz...

    Dateline NBC

    I don't even care whos to blame anymore, I stopped thinking about that after like two pages into this thread. One thing is for sure though; without t666 calling people "assclowns" and "libturds" I might have been doing something productive cause the past 17 pages consisted of me sitting...

    how do you print a thread

    Probably a simple question but how do you switch from having to click to different pages to where the whole thread is on one page. Thanks

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    Which brings up a good question, if the shit hits the fan do you jump out of a window or deliver pizza? Hindsight is irrelevant, your bulletproof risk measures have already been breached. Now is now... the answer is not a logical one nor will you truly know till it happens. The outcome is in...

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    scratch that spell check, ... I mean obviously your english is as good as my math. LOL anyways joking aside if you disagree bring forth some valid points based on facts. I'm not afraid to admit that I'm wrong. I don't claim to have all the right answers. I intend on having my views...

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    Not a surprise, one mistake if you will (20 flips not 10) *certain people quickly re-checking my math again*... and the critics bum rush me!! At least the rest of the post had merit, oh wait can you guys do a spell check too?

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    I was just exaggerating j/k, yes pulled that one out of my ass. If that was the only thing worth commenting on I feel like I got my point across. Thanks.

    strike price pegging

    Ok thanks Mark that makes a lot of sense. Earlier in the day my short call was ATM and I was considering buying 50 shares to neutralize it but wasn't too sure about the details and how it would've played out. i ended up buying the call back at around 1pm for for a loss.

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    To what degree do you plan for the worst? Do you carry an umbrella with you even on days when the weather man calls for a sunny day?

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    In order for something to be obvious it would have to be easily seen and evident to all. I would say that judging by the ups and downs in the market nothing regarding the economy is obvious. Unless of course you are sheer genius but then again no one with that mental capacity would be on here...

    strike price pegging

    ...when nearing expiration the stock price hovers over the strike price with the largest amount of open interest. So in effect the MM's moved the stock price in the direction that has caused the most amount of ATM options to expire worthless. Has anyone ever observed this or is it conspiracy...

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    There in lies many things to be assumed. Without knowing what other desperate measures were taken during the decline of his hedge fund we will never be able to say, with much merit, how carelessly he behaved. Why not this: consider before he lost even a tenth of his wealth in this hedge fund...
